.SH DESCRIPTION
This program is a compiler for the Rust language, available at
<\fBhttps://www.rust-lang.org\fR>.
+
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
-\fB-h, --help\fR:
-Display help.
+\fB--bin\fR
+Compile an executable crate (default)
.TP
-\fB-v, --version\fR:
-Display version information.
+\fB-c\fR
+Compile and assemble, but do not link
.TP
-\fB-o\fR \fIfilename\fR:
-Write output to \fIfilename\fR. The default
-output filename for \fBfoo.rs\fR is otherwise \fBfoo\fR plus any
-platform-specific extension (when compiling a binary), a
-platform-specific name, e.g. \fBlibfoo.so\fR (when compiling a
-library), \fBfoo.o\fR (when using \fB-c\fR), \fBfoo.s\fR (when using
-\fB-S\fR) or \fBfoo.bc\fR (when using \fB--emit-llvm\fR), and \fBfoo.ll\fR
-(when using both \fB-S\fR and \fB--emit-llvm\fR).
+\fB--cfg <cfgspec>\fR
+Configure the compilation environment
.TP
-\fB--lib\fR:
-Compile and link a library crate into a shared object.
+\fB--emit-llvm\fR
+Produce an LLVM bitcode file
.TP
-\fB--static\fR:
-Produce a statically-linked binary, or generate a static
-library.
+\fB-g\fR
+Produce debug info
.TP
-\fB--pretty\fR \fI[type]\fR:
-Pretty-print the input. Valid \fItype\fRs are:
-.RS
+\fB--gc\fR
+Garbage collect shared data (experimental/temporary)
.TP
-\fBnormal\fR: Un-annotated source (default).
+\fB-h --help\fR
+Display this message
.TP
-\fBexpanded\fR: Crates expanded.
+\fB-L <path>\fR
+Add a directory to the library search path
.TP
-\fBtyped\fR: Crates expanded, all expressions annotated with types.
+\fB--lib\fR
+Compile a library crate
.TP
-\fBidentified\fR: Fully parenthesized, ast nodes and blocks annotated with IDs.
-.RE
+\fB--ls\fR
+List the symbols defined by a compiled librar crate
.TP
-\fB--ls\fR:
-Lists symbols defined by the specified \fBcompiled\fR library.
+\fB--no-asm-comments\fR
+Do not add comments into the assembly source
.TP
-\fB-L\fR \fIpath\fR:
-Adds \fIpath\fR to the library search path.
+\fB--no-lint-ctypes\fR
+Suppress warnings for possibly incorrect ctype usage
.TP
-\fB--noverify\fR:
-Disables LLVM verification pass, which does sanity checking of
-bitcode generated by rustc. Using this option gives a slight speedup, at the
-cost of vastly reduced ability to catch rustc bugs. See
-<\fBhttp://llvm.org/docs/Passes.html\fR> for a list of properties checked.
+\fB--no-trans\fR
+Run all passes except translation; no output
.TP
-\fB--parse-only\fR:
-Run the parse phase only. If parsing succeeds, produces no
-output.
+\fB--no-verify\fR
+Suppress LLVM verification step (slight speedup)
+(see http://llvm.org/docs/Passes.html for detail)
.TP
-\fB--no-trans\fR:
-Run all passes except translation. Produces no output.
+\fB-O\fR
+Equivalent to --opt-level=2
.TP
-\fB-g\fR:
-Produce debug info.
+\fB-o <filename>\fR
+Write output to <filename>
.TP
-\fB--opt-level\fR \fIlevel\fR:
-Set optimization level to \fIlevel\fR.
+\fB--opt-level <lvl>\fR
+Optimize with possible levels 0-3
.TP
-\fB-O\fR:
-Equal to --opt-level=2
+\fB--out-dir <dir>\fR
+Write output to compiler-chosen filename in <dir>
.TP
-\fB-S\fR:
-Compile to assembly, but do not assemble or link.
+\fB--parse-only\fR
+Parse only; do not compile, assemble, or link
.TP
-\fB-c\fR:
-Compile and assemble, but do not link.
+\fB--pretty [type]\fR
+Pretty-print the input instead of compiling; valid types are: \fBnormal\fR (un-annotated source), \fBexpanded\fR (crates expanded), \fBtyped\fR (crates expanded, with type annotations), or \fBidentified\fR (fully parenthesized, AST nodes and blocks with IDs)
.TP
-\fB--emit-llvm\fR:
-Generate output files in LLVM format. When used with \fB-S\fR this generate LLVM
-intermediate language assembly files, otherwise this generates LLVM bitcode
-format object files.
+\fB-S\fR
+Compile only; do not assemble or link
.TP
-\fB--save-temps\fR:
-For foo.rs, save generated bitcode before optimization to
-\fBfoo.bc\fR, bitcode after optimization to \fBfoo.opt.bc\fR, and the generated
-object file to \fBfoo.o\fR.
+\fB--save-temps\fR

+Override the system root
.TP
-\fB--time-llvm-passes\fR:
-Print runtimes of llvm phases.
+\fB--test\fR
+Build test harness
.TP
-\fB--sysroot\fR \fIpath\fR:
-Set the system root. Default is the directory above
-rustc's.
+\fB--target <triple>\fR
+Target cpu-manufacturer-kernel[-os] to compile for (default: host triple)
+(see http://sources.redhat.com/autobook/autobook/autobook_17.html for detail)
.TP
-\fB--target\fR \fIgnu-config-name\fR:
-Set the compilation target, which is a
-string of the form \fBcpu\fR-\fBmanufacturer\fR-\fBkernel\fR[-\fBos\fR]. Example
-values include "i686-unknown-linux-gnu" and "mips-idt-ecoff"; see
-<\fBhttp://sources.redhat.com/autobook/autobook/autobook_17.html\fR>. If not
-supplied, the host triple is used (see \fB--version\fR output).
+\fB--time-passes\fR
+Time the individual phases of the compiler
.TP
-\fB--test\fR:
-Build a test harness.
+\fB--time-llvm-passes\fR
+Time the individual phases of the LLVM backend
.TP
-\fB--gc\fR:
-\fBEXPERIMENTAL\fR. Garbage-collect shared data.
+\fB-v --version\fR
+Print version info and exit
.TP
-\fB--warn-unused-imports\fR:
-Warn about unnecessary imports.
-.TP
-\fB--no-lint-ctypes\fR:
-Disables checking of possibly incorrect usage of Rust int or uint types in
-native function declarations, where types defined in libcore::ctypes should be
-used instead. Ctypes check emits warnings by default.
+\fB--warn-unused-imports\fR
+Warn about unnecessary imports
+
+.SH "EXAMPLES"
+To build an executable from a source file with a main function:
+ $ rustc -o hello hello.rs
+
+To build a library from a source file:
+ $ rustc --lib hello-lib.rs
+
+To build either with a crate (.rc) file:
+ $ rustc hello.rc
